Reach One Each One is a program designed to give healthcare science students a REAL world look at healthcare. A collaboration of Grady Health System, Morehouse School of Medicine, and Emory School of Medicine, the program is designed to introduce and expose high-performing students from underrepresented backgrounds who are interested in pursuing medical careers to various specialties during an intensive 10-week course.

This is a great honor and these students should be congratulated.
